How fast does HostJane payout?

Cash donations for gas and groceries are paid in 48 hours to your nominated bank or PayPal account.

To meet our anti-fraud obligations, HostJane holds most other marketplace payments for services for 5 days after each order is completed with Buyer approval and compulsory feedback.
